I have definitely been thinking about building another one on a wide track though (I should have done it in a wider one to start with!)07 Java Black TD V6 D3, EGRs Blanked, Tow bar, Full dog guard & divider, LED Spots , DRLs, GG ATs, RLD Sump guard, RLD Spare Wheel Protector, D4 LED Rear Lights, Limo tints on boot and Midnight tint on rear windows, Kenwood screen with Garmin nav, Rear cameras, D4 Steering wheel with flappy paddles, T-max split charge system, Tree sliders, Prospeed roof rack & Ladder, Alisport fast road inter cooler,

Ahhhh
So today my adapters arrived and I thought yay
Then I remembered the conversation about threads
So took a wheel off today and tried to fit the adapters and no luck
The tread so the nuts securing the adapters as suspected is M16 and the hub threads are old imperial 1 1/16" so damn close. You can get one or two turns but no more and obviously I don't want to cross thread it.
So...... My option now is to change the threads on the hubs. However these are not cheap the normal 45mm length are about £5 for 5 but the 60mm designed for wolf wheels (which are the ones I beleive I need) are £35 for 5
So questions:
Am I right in thinking I need 60mm long studs?
If so can anyone find them cheaper?
And the final but most important question how do you change the studs? Is it as simple as knocking the old ones out and pressing in the new ones?
Thanks as always! 07 Java Black TD V6 D3, EGRs Blanked, Tow bar, Full dog guard & divider, LED Spots , DRLs, GG ATs, RLD Sump guard, RLD Spare Wheel Protector, D4 LED Rear Lights, Limo tints on boot and Midnight tint on rear windows, Kenwood screen with Garmin nav, Rear cameras, D4 Steering wheel with flappy paddles, T-max split charge system, Tree sliders, Prospeed roof rack & Ladder, Alisport fast road inter cooler,

I assume you mean the awning?
No because the poles at the front are adjustable you can lower the front edge (not attached to trailer) to create a good run off 07 Java Black TD V6 D3, EGRs Blanked, Tow bar, Full dog guard & divider, LED Spots , DRLs, GG ATs, RLD Sump guard, RLD Spare Wheel Protector, D4 LED Rear Lights, Limo tints on boot and Midnight tint on rear windows, Kenwood screen with Garmin nav, Rear cameras, D4 Steering wheel with flappy paddles, T-max split charge system, Tree sliders, Prospeed roof rack & Ladder, Alisport fast road inter cooler,
